Five of us (2 adults, 3 children) spent two nights in the Apple Ranch.When we first contacted us, everything was very friendly and uncomplicated.Getting there was problem-free, although the entrance sign wasn't that easy to see in the dark. Parking could be tight when full, but there wasn't much going on where we were, so we had plenty of space. I don't know if there will be additional parking spaces, but that's possible. The location is ideal for people who are looking for peace and quiet. It doesn't take long to drive to surrounding towns either.We were warmly welcomed by the hostess and immediately felt like we were in good hands. Everything was shown and explained to us in detail. We were given two large rooms one above the other (on two floors) and decided on the spot who would be in the room with whom. For smaller children, you may need to adjust things so that they don't fall out of bed. There may also be fall protection, but I didn't ask about that. The house is already old and taller people sometimes have to duck their heads when climbing the stairs. Overall, it is simply charming and very lovingly designed. It is rustic and rather rural, so you could certainly find a few criticisms if you were expecting modern hotel accommodation. There were two bathrooms, a small one down on the ground floor and a larger one at the top. Everything was clean and well furnished.The rooms were also lovingly furnished and had everything you need. The mattresses were good and I slept wonderfully. There is a loft bed in the top room, right under the roof, which is pretty great for the kids. However, the stairs up are quite steep and narrow and should be used by children who can climb stairs really safely.We booked breakfast, which I can recommend, because the hostess serves a very tasty, nicely presented and generous breakfast.Behind the building there is a large meadow with lots of trees, cozy corners and lots to discover. There are also animals that are rather shy.Even though our stay was short, it felt like a mini vacation.The rustic character of the house together with the warmth of the hostess made the stay really nice. When we're in the area again, we'll be sure to check Apple Ranch for availability!Deserved 5 out of 5 for anyone looking for this type of accommodation.

The name ranch may not be appropriate. The operator is very attentive and friendly, that's why we get the fourth star. But it's clear from every corner that she's having a hard time running the guesthouse.

I chose this accommodation because it was on my bike tour and was also great in terms of price. Yes, I had an unintentional mishap. Which wasn't a problem because the hostess was very helpful and provided the washing machine. The breakfast is also excellent. Just like the rooms.I would be happy to come back.

I looked for accommodation and ended up in the Apple Ranch. The name probably comes from the many old apple trees. The rooms and the entire building have been lovingly prepared and renovated. The boss is a good hostess and fulfills almost all wishes. I felt very well looked after.

Very beautiful looking 200 year old building, which is decorated with many colours, providing a nice and cosy atmosphere. Friendly landlady. The breakfast is not included in the price but it tastes very nice and is prepared carefully. It looked very nice. Beautiful looking garden.

Rooms are cleaned very poorly. There are a lot of spider webs and they have been there for some time. Rooms have no facilities and the bed is very bad. Breakfast is far too little and the quality is very minimal. The location is reasonable and the building does offer opportunities, but it looks like nothing has been done about it for many years. Hopefully they will renovate it properly and ensure that the door openings are higher than 1.60.

We received a very friendly welcome after the actual check-in time and were shown everything in a relaxed manner.The old house definitely has its charm, but you should be aware that there are a lot of squeaks and creaks.The room price is now almost unbeatable.

Not so easy to find at night. Otherwise a paradise for bookworms, and the doors squeak so that you don't fall asleep while reading. By the way, the room prices are moderate.

I recommend a visit. You will hardly get such an experience anywhere else. You will remember it for the rest of your life. The breakfast is unique 🙂 in the warm year, choose breakfast outside 😉 the lady tried very hard. We stocked up on vitamin C for the journey ahead.

It was wonderful with you! The half-timbered house was restored with so much attention to detail, you can only feel comfortable in it! The loving care of the landlady at breakfast. Thank you very much again for that.There are so many accessories throughout the house that match the house. I thought it was so rustic!

We were guests in the Apple Ranch, the atmosphere that this house expresses is indescribable, the house conveys such enormous warmth and security that you can hardly put it into words, the hostess Romana was friendly, loving and attentive.. We will be back I would highly recommend the accommodation ❤🙏🏽

After long-term booking and email contact and confirmation, my booking was canceled due to so-called property damage and rented to a larger group. …

Anyone who loves Leisnig is in good hands with Ramona.Individual, personal, lovable - both the guest house and its landlady Ramona have such a personality.Breakfast under the apple tree, the hollow in the distance, the clucking of the chickens - pure security. The rooms in the lovingly restored half-timbered house testify to craftsmanship and dedication to the property. Simply, passion is at work here. My strong recommendation for this warming temporary home. Thank you, dear Ramona.
